Diego de Velazquez

Artists in a Nutshell

Available for over a year

The life and work of Phillip IV of Spain's favourite painter. "Velazquez took forever over his pictures, his seeming spontaneity was the result of hours of standing in front of a canvas, pondering, leaving and coming back again - he was such a man of opposites!" says art critic Louisa Buck.
